This study sought to develop Proposed Assessment Tools for Measuring Learning Engagement in Grade 8 Science as a basis for a The work ethics of teachers play an essential role in shaping a positive school environment and improving overall educational outcomes. This study was conducted to examine the perceptions of school heads on the work ethics of teachers in relation to various profile variables and to propose leadership practices that could strengthen ethical performance in the workplace. Specifically, it sought to determine how school heads perceive teacher work ethics in terms of punctuality and attendance, accountability and responsibility, professionalism in conduct and communication, integrity and honesty, commitment to duties and continuous learning, and collaboration and teamwork. It also aimed to identify differences in these perceptions when grouped according to school heads’ highest educational attainment, number of years in service, current position, and trainings and seminars attended. The study employed a descriptive-comparative quantitative research design involving 32 school heads as respondents. A validated survey questionnaire was used to gather data. The results showed that school heads generally perceived teachers’ work ethics positively across all indicators. However, statistically significant differences were found when perceptions were grouped according to profile variables, especially in relation to current position and trainings attended. The most notable differences were associated with the number of trainings and seminars attended, indicating that professional development influences school leaders’ ethical assessments. Based on the findings, leadership practices such as ethical leadership training, mentoring, professional learning communities, and objective evaluation tools were proposed to foster a more consistent and ethically driven teaching force. These findings underscore the importance of reflective and transformative leadership in strengthening the ethical culture within schools.
